Interesting bit of news here…

Sky and Netflix are to enter a partnership, which will grant customers access to all the content across the two services. According to Digital Spy, this new European partnership will see the Netflix app added to Sky Q, so that customers can easily flick between the two services.

Netflix big cheese, Reed Hastings, said: “With this innovative new partnership and Netflix’s stellar lineup of original content from across the world, Sky’s customers will be able to seamlessly access and enjoy all the best entertainment in one place.”

The service will launch in the UK and Ireland later this year. Customers entering into this service will be billed once, for the use of both platforms.

Once this service gets off the ground it will be rolled out to Germany, Austria and Italy.
